Bakayoko agent hits out at claims AC Milan plan to return to sender

The agent of Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko has dismissed claims his loan with AC Milan will be cut short in January.

Reports have suggested that the club will monitor the player's performance over the next six to eight games to decide whether they will keep him for the rest of the season.

His agent Federico Pastorello, has since rubbished these claims.

“Bakayoko is happy in Milan and Milan are happy with him," he told Calciomercato.com.

“It was known he would need a bit of time, but everyone is convinced he can contribute a lot to their season. All this chatter about a return to Chelsea in January is completely unfounded."
